Doctor Who: The Twelfth Doctor: Time Trials Volume 2: The Wolves of Winter
The adventures of the Twelfth Doctor continue, and Bill Potts finally makes her comic debut! As Bill and the Doctor cross paths with a Viking crew on the run, they discover invaders from Mars lurking on the ice! But the Ice Warriors and Vikings aren’t alone here, as two dire threats from the Doctor’s past collide in the snowy wastes.
Many of the Doctor Who comics love to revisit storylines from Doctors past, but rarely have those resurrected threats as ambitious, or combined as deftly, as they are in The Wolves of Winter. Both the Tenth and Seventh Doctors are referenced here, as well as Capaldi’s Doctor’s past, and the brisk narrative manages to drop just enough info to keep new readers informed as the plot unfolds rapidly.
The introduction of the brash and ever-inquisitive Bill into the mix adds to the delightful melange of story threads, as Bill not only makes her own observations but gets a wonderful moment of reassuring the Doctor and getting him back on track. As she did in her season of the TV show, Bill revitalizes and adds flavor to an already cracking formula.
